"This book 'The Increasing Case Of Wife Battering And Domestic Violence' explains what it means to put the pathology outside the abused woman in real, concrete terms. The uniqueness of this strategy rests in its practical applications: society must comprehend that battered women are not 'ill,' but rather are in a 'sick' circumstance. Practical and thorough, this manual is a great resource for physicians and other interventionists. The detailed information on the actual aspects of abused women's posttraumatic reactions is integrated with psychological theory in Henry Frederick's book, The Increasing Case Of Wife Battering And Domestic Violence while reading. The techniques for examination that are included in each chapter are particularly helpful. Frederick's approach to understanding the context of abused women's experiences with violence and empowering them will also work to empower and liberate those who are giving violence assistance to women who have experienced partner abuse. This book demonstrates how women experience abuse in a variety of ways and utilize a variety of coping mechanisms to survive it. It then went on to make several recommendations for helping battered women. Anyone who interacts with battered women, including advocates for battered women, law enforcement personnel, and attorneys, will find this book to be an invaluable resource."--Amazon.com.
